Second-order differential equation with indefinite and repulsive singularities

This paper concerns a second-order differential equation with indefinite and repulsive singularities. It is the first time to study differential equation containing both indefinite and repulsive singularities simultaneously. A set of sufficient conditions are obtained for the existence of positive periodic solutions. The theoretical underpinnings of this paper are the positivity of Green's function and fixed point theorem in cones. Our results improve and extend the results in previous literatures. Finally, three examples and their numerical simulations (phase diagrams and time diagrams of periodic solutions) are given to show the effectiveness of our conclusions

Existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for Neumann problems of second order impulsive differential equations

This work is concerned with the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions for Neumann boundary value problems of second order impulsive differential equations. The result is obtained by using a fixed point theorem of generalized concave operators

Existence and Uniqueness of Positive Solutions to Nonlinear Second Order Impulsive Differential Equations with Concave or Convex Nonlinearities

Using a new fixed point theorem of generalized concave operators, we present in this paper criteria which guarantee the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions to nonlinear two-point boundary value problems for second-order impulsive differential equations with concave or convex nonlinearities

Applications of Schauder’s Fixed Point Theorem to Semipositone Singular Differential Equations

We study the existence of positive periodic solutions of second-order singular differential equations. The proof relies on Schauder’s fixed point theorem. Our results generalized and extended those results contained in the studies by Chu and Torres (2007) and Torres (2007) . In some suitable weak singularities, the existence of periodic solutions may help

Classical and Quantum Mechanical Models of Many-Particle Systems

This workshop was dedicated to the presentation of recent results in the field of the mathematical study of kinetic theory and its naturalextensions (statistical physics and fluid mechanics). The main models are the Vlasov(-Poisson) equation and the Boltzmann equation, which are obtainedas limits of many-body equations (Newton’s equations in the classical case and Schrödinger’s equation in the quantum case) thanks to the mean-field and Boltzmann-Grad scalings. Numerical aspects and applications to mechanics, physics, engineering and biology were also discussed
